Say Something

A/N: There is a little bit of adult content in this chapter… Nothing too graphic and nothing horrendously obscene…

Adi woke to the feeling of someone stirring next to her.

"You aren't trying to sneak out, are you Poe?" she said softly.

"I was trying not to wake you," he said softly before kissing her on the top of her head.

"Just five more minutes," she said wrapping her arms around him and pulling him close.

"Come on Malek. You need to change, and I need to return to my room and change before people realize I never slept there. Plus, I need to leave soon," he responded as he played with her hair.

"Keep playing with my hair like that and I am not going anywhere," she mumbled as she buried her face into his chest.

"Well then. I guess I will just have to tickle you," he said quickly before he began his attack.

"Poe stop!" she squealed between giggles. "Mercy!" she exclaimed as tears rolled down her face. She glanced up at Poe who was situated above her.

Her breath hitched as he leaned down and gently placed his lips against hers. She quickly wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer to her. She nibbled on his bottom lip and he smirked against her lips. She felt his tongue on her bottom lip and she parted her lips just enough to allow him access. She melted and let him wander her mouth before he started to pepper kisses down her neck. She let out a soft moan as he hit the sweet spot at the base of her neck. He smirked against her skin before nibbling down on the spot.

She let out a gasp as she twisted her fingers into his hair and gave it a rough tug.

"I should go," Poe smirked breathlessly before leaned down to give her a small kiss.

Adi took her chance and switched them around so that she was straddling him.

"Adi," he whispered sternly. She looked down at him with fire in her eyes.

"You don't get to do that and then just walk away Dameron," she scolded as she ground her hips into his, causing his breath to hitch.

"You are playing with fire Malek," Poe growled as his eyes burned with desire.

"Maybe I like playing with fire," she smirked back at him.

"Is that so?" he asked as he ran his hands up and down her back tracing the outline of her dress. He moved his right hand to the back of her neck and pulled her down to his lips as his other hand lightly traced swirls on her back. He kissed her as hard and as passionately as he could. He flipped so that she was on her back, not breaking their kiss. He pulled back to look at her as he slowly caressed his hand down her side making her squirm under his touch.

As she looked up at him, she couldn't help but bring one of her hands up to gently touch his face. He slowly pulled the hem of her dress, not breaking eye contact. She gasped as his hand brushed against the bare skin in her thigh.

"Poe," she half pleaded, staring into his eyes. Poe looked over her face again before moving his hand to the side of her face.

"We shouldn't do this now love," he said as he moved some hair out of her face. "It will give me something to make me rush back to you even faster." He pressed his forehead to hers and took a few depth breaths.

"I love you Poe Dameron," she whispered before placing a gentle kiss in his lips.

"I love you Adiara Malek," he responded with a smile. "I need to go get ready," he sighed as he stood slowly from the bed. "See you down there?"

"I wouldn't miss it for anything," she smiled as she kneeled on her bed. Poe placed his hands on her the sides of her face and pulled her in for one more kiss before leaving her room. She dropped back to a seated position and pulled the pins out of her, letting her red curls fall down her back.

"I can't believe you," Kylo's voice came.

"What do you want Ren?" she asked as she walked over to her closet and pulled out her clothes for the day. He didn't answer her. She felt a hand on her arm and then she was facing him, staring directly into his eyes that were full of rage.

"You betrayed me," he growled, gripping her arms.

"I do not belong to you! Therefore, I did not betray you. Now remove your hands, you are hurting me," she bit back as she pulled herself from his hands and crossed over to her bathroom with her clothes.

"You slept with him," he sneered, not moving from his spot.

"And what if I did?" she said turning to face him. "What could you possibly do about it? I am my own person and I have my own feelings."

"You are mine!" Ren growled as he walked over and pulled her face to his, kissing her roughly.

"No!" she said, pushing him away. "You do not get to kiss me. You do not get to touch me. Today I say goodbye to the man I love forever because of you. You have no right to be angry with what may or may not have happened between Poe and I last night."

"You did sleep with him," Ren said slumping his shoulders.

"Keyword is sleep," she responded sharply.

"You didn't," Ren said glancing up at her.

"Not for lack of trying. Poe is too much of a gentleman when it comes to me," she mumbled.

"Adi," he started.

"No, I will be leaving tonight. Your mother knows my plan, but she is the only one. She will break it to Poe when the time is correct. You don't get to be in my head today. Now leave," she said sternly before walking into her bathroom and closing the door. She took a deep breath before quickly getting ready for the day.

As she walked out of the base to the flight area, she saw BB8 by Poe's X-Wing. She walked over to the droid, pulling her red leather jacket tighter around her. This planet had a chill in the early morning.

"Good Morning BB8!" she smiled as she reached the droid, who beeped happily in response.

"Can you do me a favor? Make sure he comes back in one piece?" she asked the small droid who chirped at her promisingly, making her smile a little.

"What did you just make my droid promise you?" Poe's voice came from behind her.

"To get you back here in one piece. You do have a record of being reckless Dameron," she smirked as she turned to face him.

"I do not," he retaliated feigning hurt.

"Mhm," she smirked at him. Her breath quickened as she saw BB8 being loaded into the X-Wing. Poe noticed immediately and pulled her into his arms.

"It is going to be ok," he said softly as he placed a kiss in her hair. "Deep breathes Malek, I don't need the medical bay coming after me."

"I don't want you to go," she whispered as she fought back tears.

"Adi," Poe whispered gently as he stepped back to look her over. "Love, I will come back, in one piece." He gently placed his hand on the side of her face. She placed her hand over his and leaned into his touch. "I love you Adi," he said softly as he placed his forehead on hers.

"I love you Poe," she whispered before leaning up and pressing her lips to his. This kiss was different from the ones they had shared that morning. Those had been passionate, and lust filled. This kiss was full of hope, longing and love. It was Adi's way of telling him goodbye without telling him she was going.

When they finally broke a part, breathless, the others who were seeing him off had come outside. Leia gave Adi a small smile as Poe walked over to the small group of people. She watched from the distance as Leia told him something before giving him a small hug. He turned and looked at Adi with a smile before jogging back over to her. Before she could even ask what Leia had said, he pulled her in for another kiss.

"If you keep kissing me like that, I am going to disobey orders and climb into the X-wing with you," she exhaled once they broke a part.

"I am going to miss you Malek," he said softly. "Remember what you promised me?" She nodded her head.

"Remember what you promised me?" she asked glancing up at his eyes.

"I will always find you Malek," he said before giving her one more kiss and stepping towards the ladder. "Always," he said with one more look at her. He quickly climbed the ladder and jumped into his fighter.

"Keep him safe BB8!" Adi called up to the droid. She couldn't make out what he beeped but she did hear Poe's response.

"I am not reckless!" Poe called back to the droid and Adi laughed at the pair before she walked over to stand next to Leia.

"Does he know?" Leia asked as she gently grabbed Adi's hand.

"No, it is better this way," she answered as she watched Poe prepare to take off.

"What was the promise he had you make?" Leia asked looking at Adi softly.

"He made me promise that if anything happened, I wouldn't go searching for him. The original promise, he wanted me to move on, but I refused to accept he wasn't coming back," she sighed.

"What did he promise you?" she smirked turning back to the runway.

"I made him promise that no matter what, he will always find me, no matter where I am," she answered as she looked up at Poe who smiled at her one more time before taking off.

"Come dear. You need to prepare for your own trip," Leia said as she motioned to the door.

"Yes Leia," Adi responded as she followed the woman into the base and back to her room.

Adi was situated on a small ship that Leia had arranged transport for her on. A smuggler had brought supplies to base recently and Leia has managed to convince them to take Adi to Naboo. She was sure the General had promised them something in return, but she did not let Adi know what that was.

They had left quite a while ago. They were at light speed and since she wasn't a pilot, she had no idea how long it would take to get to Naboo. She did know that space was cold and was grateful for Leia making her put on additional layers of clothing. She sat there just lost in her thought. She thought about how betrayed Poe would feel once he returned and he found out that she had gone to Naboo to keep him safe. She only hoped that finding her would be easier than she feared it would be.

"We are almost there," a voice came breaking her from her thoughts. "We will drop you about a few kilometers away from the location. I am not risking my ship dropping you exactly where you need to go."

"That is fine. I appreciate getting this far," Adi responded as she stood and flung her bag over her shoulder.

"Why are you going to Naboo anyway? It is just ruins," they said.

"I need to do something for the General. I will have a way to return. I just needed a way here," she answered.

The smuggler went to say something else but was silenced by a beep.

"We are here," they said before walking out of the room.

The platform opened a few feet above the ground and Adi quickly jumped down off it. She looked up as the ship sped off the planet.

"Too late to turn back now Malek," she mumbled to herself. She looked around trying to get her barring when she saw a black ship landing not too far to her north.

"That is my ship," Ren's voice came in her head.

"You couldn't have landed is closer," she mumbled as she started the walk towards it.

"You know I can hear you right?" he said, she could hear the smirk on his face.

"I thought we were meeting where Anakin and Padme were married? That is east of this location," she said, ignoring his statement.

"We aren't staying on Naboo. There is a matter I need to attend to. Plus, my mother knows you are here. Sorry my dear, I am only here to pick you up. You will be residing on Finalizer in my quarters for the time being," he answered calmly.

"So, no prison cell?" she asked.

"No. I told Snoke that I would convince you to join our side. He has agreed to give me some time to… "Work" on you."

"That sounds encouraging," she grimaced as she reached the ship.

"Only time will tell," his voice came. "Look at me little dove," he said gently, using the force to lift her head up gently.

"Cheap trick," she sneered as she moved to walk past him.

His hand instantly shot out and he grabbed her wrist. "You may want to start acting a little better. I can easily make your stay more like a prison. As it stands you are confined to my quarters, but I can easily make it a cell."

"You are hurting my wrist Ren," she said calmly.

"Keep acting like this and I will hurt more than your wrist," he said sharply before pulling her up the ramp with him.

"Cuff her," he said to someone as the platform behind them closed. The moment we are on board the Finalizer you are to take her straight to my quarters. Is that understood?"

"Yes sir," a trooper responded as they put cuffs on her and led her to a seat.

"Really low Ren," she sneered over her shoulder.

"Keep it up Adiara," Ren sneered back.

Adi say where the troopers placed her and bit her tongue. She bounced her leg up and down to try and settle her nerves, but it didn't work. She didn't know when Poe would be back, but she knew he would head straight for Naboo and there would be no trace of her.

"You know I can hear your thoughts, right?" Ren asked as he towered over her.

"Wasn't trying to hide them," she answered looking up at him.

"We are here," he said as he pulled her up by her arm. "I had some things sent to my quarters for you. I suggest you shower and change into one of the things I sent. I don't need people questioning why you are dressed like a rebel."

"I am a Rebel!" Adi snapped back. "There is nothing you could say that will make me change my mind."

"Just do as you are told for once in your life. I will be there shortly," he snapped before handing her over to two stormtroopers.

"I see you captured a rebel," a red-headed man said as they walked down the platform.

"She is not a prisoner. She is here by Snoke's order and is not to be touched," Ren said sharply as he tensed up.

"Shame. She is quite a beauty," he responded as used his hand to lift her face up towards him.

"Touch me again and I will make sure you lose that hand," she snapped.

"Leave her Hux!" Ren ordered. "Take her to my quarters now!"

The troopers pulled and dragged her through the base until they reached Kylo's quarters. They opened the door and pushed her into the room. The door quickly closed behind her and she hear it lock.

"Uh, Ren," she said as she reached out through the force.

"Not the time," he responded quickly.

"I cannot exactly change or shower with these cuffs on," she huffed. Within a matter of seconds, the cuffs clicked and fell off her wrists.

She rubbed them absent mindedly as she looked around the room. It was like her quarters, but colder. Everything was black and red and there was nothing personal in the room. She walked over to the bedroom and stepped over to the closet. She took a breath before opening it. She ran her hands across the dresses that obviously had been placed there for her. All Black. Some has a little bit of red or red stitching on them. She sighed as she grabbed one of the dresses from the closet and crossed over to the bathroom.

She quickly showered and forced herself into the dress. The fabric was light weight. And the dress was not something she would have ever picked for herself. It was too low cut and too revealing for her. The sleeves were practically non-existent. This dress would not help keep her warm. She walked over to the vanity and looked at the array of makeup sitting there for her. It was all dark makeup. She put on the eyeliner and a touch of the lipstick but nothing else. He could force her to wear his clothes but she was not going to make herself up like something she would not. She left her hair down, hoping it would help retain some of her body heat.

She laid down on the bed and exhaled loudly, closing her eyes. Before she knew it she was drifting off to sleep.
